A study was conducted to characterize the vesicular-arbuscular
(VA) fungi of apples grown in Oregon. Using roots and soil from
apple orchards as inoculae, six different fungal species were found
in pot cultures: Gigas ...
Many higher plants have mycorrhizae associated with their roots. These structures are often essential for survival and growth (Harley & Smith 1983). Mycorrhizae are known for the abilities to enhance nutrient absorption. ...
Basidiospores of Rhizopogon viriicolor Smith and R. colossus
Smith were inoculated onto container-grown Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga
menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) seedlings and grown under two levels of
soluble fertilizer and ...
A greenhouse bioassay was used to investigate effects of natural and manmade disturbances on native ectomycorrhizal populations of Douglas-fir and western hemlock on a steep southeast slope in the
west central Cascade M ...
The several thousand fungi known to form ectomycorrhizae have co-evolved with their host plants and have developed impressive physiological and ecological diversity. Exploration of some relationships of enzyme activities ...
A greenhouse bioassay was used to compare the effects
of soils collected at different distances from hardwood
species on the growth, mycorrhiza formation, and foliar
nutrient concentrations of Douglas-fir seedlings. S ...
The influence of mycorrhizae on the nutrient uptake of
strawberries and red raspberries was investigated. On red raspberries
innoculation with a mycorrhizal fungus resulted in increased P uptake
and a greater concentr ...
Field and greenhouse bioassays were used to compare the mycorrhizal associations of Douglas-fir seedlings from undisturbed forests, and nonburned and burned portions of clearcuts on three Sites in the west-central Cascad ...
